Found it. Just needed to look deeper into some of Researcher's great information on this great forum.
If anyone has Lyman beads they would sale that would be great. Or if I can find some does anyone have the reamers for installation that I could use?
Thanks elton

I have used Galazan's "real ivory" beads. I like big ones, even though they may not be the original size.
